    I wouldn't have gotten as much done as you did because I would want to be out in that beautiful picture perfect scenery.

    Pretty quilts! I could get a lot done, too, if I had such a view out my window!

    Love the San Juans, before we moved away we loved to boat around the islands, Jones Island and Roche Harbor were our favorite spots. The kids still go to Camp Orkila there on Orcas Island every year. Very beautiful place!

    I am so jealous !!! When I heard about the retreat I wanted to go, we honeymooned on Orcas Island in 1973. I am sorry about the problems with the machines, but it does look like you got a lot of work done.

    What a beautiful view. Maybe she wasn't real discouraged. Looks like she is doing a great job.

    Very nice to share with your daughter. Tell her I really like her colors in that quilt.

    I will tell her. Her colors were the hit of the retreat.

    She is the type of person who needs every thing just right. I was so proud of her when her first wonky diamond came up and she said, "it's perfect".

    Very nice. Great view also. My son is in the coast guard stationed in Seattle.
